Its all God's plan.

of course it is.

Its the most manipulative show I have ever seen. They take what people say, who they ambush on the street unprepared, out of context and then cut there own commentaries with it to make this narrative that proves all of their points. You'd think this shit would be on Fox News, but the fact that this is a show about the warped bastardization of spirituality is even more infuriating.

No, cashews are so small the curved shape isn't really relevant.

A Coke bottle? They have an hourglass curve, and they fit in your mouth, right?

I know! A turkey neck! They are just the right size and that curve, and people love to eat them. Is it a turkey neck? It it? What did I win?

This is, after all, how our closest evolutionary relatives, the chimps, eat thems.

Still, could this clown be any more retarded? The common grocery-store banana he's peeling looks nothing at all like the original wild natural banana before man started fucking with it. What a douche bag.

There are over three hundred varieties of banana, and none of them are native to Hawaii. None of them have been genetically altered, either -- no, not even that nice big Chiquita you're holding -- unless you consider selective breeding to be "genetically altered"... in which case you also have to include lots of other things like corn, and dogs, and us people too. Many of the other commercial varieties of banana are smaller and darker, but that doesn't make them any more (or less) natural than the Cavendish, the variety commonly sold in the US. They've all been subjected to selective breeding too.

now what do *I* win?

Kirk will be so pleased.

I'm scared... I'm so scared.

That said, the logic in the banana video is flawless.

One hit wonder.

That has to be the most pathetic attempt at an intelligent design argument I've yet seen.

Sshhhhh! You're going to make me miss Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip!

You might be interested to know that the vast majority of Christians, Jews, Muslims, and Hindus accept evolutionary theory. None of the major religions has expressed disapproval of the theory, though disapproval has been expressed by some small groups and (often very vocal) individuals. Scientific discovery is embraced by the major religions and such discovery is generally the result of the long-term historical support by the major religions and adherents of these religions for scientific inquiry (despite what you may have heard, a reading of the historical records overwhelmingly and directly supports this). What the major religions have consistently opposed is the position that there is no God. Classical and modern evolutionary theory (even the versions which have been generally discarded) do not conflict with the presence of God.

Undertake scientific research into the actual stated positions of the major religions as well as the adherents of these religions and you'll discover this for yourself. It seems that nonbelievers are often very surprised (and sometimes shocked) at how compatible evolutionary theory is with the tenants and historical documents of the major faiths. The believers generally aren't.

Francis Crick (credited with codiscovering the DNA helix), after reviewing the body of information regarding DNA, stated "An honest man, armed with all the knowledge available to us now, could only state that in some sense, the origin of life appears at the moment to be almost a miracle, so many are the conditions which would have had to have been satisfied to get it going."

Gene Myers of the (now famous) Human Genome Project stated the following: "What really astounds me is the architecture of life … The system is extremely complex. It's like it was designed … There's a huge intelligence there."

Regarding the basic "code of life" (DNA), Werner Gitt of the German Federal Institute of Physics and Technology, has stated the following: "A code system is always the result of a mental process … It should be emphasized that matter as such is unable to generate any code. All experiences indicate that a thinking being voluntarily exercising his own free will, cognition, and creativity, is required … There is no known natural law through which matter can give rise to information, neither is any physical process or material phenomenon known that can do this."

Anthony Flew is known as a leading philosopher and defender of atheism. He has been a professor over the last 5 decades at major UK universities (including Oxford and Aberdeen). Regarding his espousal of atheism, he has now publicly announced, "As people have certainly been influenced by me, I want to try and correct the enormous damage I may have done." Anthony now holds that God exists and proof of this is found in DNA.
